So my family, my whole family, seems to have accepted that Brian is a permanency. I've been very careful not to talk about our intentions. But, I mentioned it ever so lightly as a possibility while talking to my mom and she didn't bat an eyelash. We were discussing issues of transferring title of ownerships, insurance, and residency and she just proceeded to say, "Well, if that's the case then when you two get married you can..." I sort of stopped listening to the rest because I was surprised.
When we hung up I did the Nathan Fillion Surprised/Confused Grunt.
(Most of you have no idea what the hell that is. I know. Shame on you. Watch the damn series! Or at least the first episode where he first discovers River in a box.)
Anyway, I talked to my grandfather, who always mentions him and how impressed mom and dad were. He insists on meeting him. Of course, he wants to partially because he has cancer again and his life is winding down and he doesn't want to miss out. I'm the baby. The last one. He knows he won't see the great-grandkids grow. So, I'm the last one.
Anyway, he talks about how I'd make a great military wife and at one point refers to Brian as a member of the family.
